Looks like somebody tried to get in there...I have a Bak Flip and it doesn't open on its own. They might have F'd it up by prying it too. Maybe your cousin can check it out and see. Semper Fi!

We used to go out there at night and back a truck way down between the tree rows and drink beer back there...shoot guns too sometimes lol. They never figured out where we were back there. Dont think I'd try that these days!

Agreed, looks like someone had been messing around with the cover.
I also have a Bak Flip and it never opens on it's own either...

Same here: Its never opened on its own.
Thanks for your service brother;
Do you know anybody near your place that catches rattlers? One or two in the back would stop most thieves. Just a thought. Or it you do know somebody into snakes maybe they could sell you a few rattles to hang off the inside lid.

I have had my Bakflip for 18 months and I have never had an issue with it opening on its own. I seldom open it as I can easily use the tailgate while leaving the lid closed.
I like the idea of lining up a couple spent shotgun shells where the damage is, but I guess you already moved it so might not matter now.
Maybe have the GF pick up one of those 'area under surveillance' sign. Might even be a good idea to have her get a simple cheap motion alarm and put it inside the bed of the truck.
They also sell super cheap dummy security cameras that have solar powered led lights and a fake antenna.

I appreciate it guys. It’s in a safe place now but I was hoping Get some type of locking mechanism to where you can only open it when you open the tailgate to make it harder to open from the outside. I’ll have to look further into it later.
